in order to study the effect of ultrasound (us) on bone healing, a complete transverse fracture was made in the right radius of adult male rabbits by a cutter. 52 rabbits were used: group i. control (n= 17): group 2. test (n:=: 15): group 3, intact (n= i) and group 4 (n= 12) who were examined only for evaluation of the cutter effects in detail. 7 animals were operated with a gigli saw. the test...

Background: The supratrochlear foramen (STF) is an important and relatively common anatomic variation in the lower end of the humerus in humans. In recent years it has become clear that STF should be emphasized because anatomical knowledge of STF is useful for anatomists, anthropologists, orthopedic surgeons, and radiologists. The anatomical structure of the humerus may play an important role i...

in this research, anatomical descriptions of the structure of the temporal bone and auditory ossicles have been performed based on dissection of ten guinea pigs. the results showed that, in guinea pig temporal bone was similar to other animals and had three parts; squamous, tympanic and petrous .the tympanic part was much better developed and consisted of oval shaped tympanic bulla with many re...

background: appropriate endurance exercise can change bone mass density and strength of weight-bearing bones in both animals and humans, but its effects on the microstructure are not known. this study aimed to determine skeletal changes induced by the treadmill running endurance in ovariectomized adult mice. methods: twenty-seven adult female rats were divided into experimental and control grou...

Every animal has a skeleton made up of many different bones. Bones are vital. Without bones we would not be able to move, protect our internal organs, store important minerals, or even make some cell types! When young, in addition growing, must develop into specific shapes. This article describes how and why grow heal humans guinea pigs. Using special imaging technique called micro-computed tom...

Forensic identification is an attempt that made with the purpose of assisting investigator to determine a person's identity. According bones process, we can obtain information relating identity such as race, gender, age, and height estimates. In this case report, discuss found by locals in place, which allegedly belongs human bones. This discovery was reported police for investigation. After th...

An osteoblastoma is a primary benign bone tumor, which is rarely seen in hand bones. Osteoblastoma is generally seen in spine, pelvis, and long bones. However, there are a few case reports of osteoblastoma in wrist and hand bones. To our knowledge, up to now, only one male patient with osteoblastoma in capitate bone was reported. We report the first female case of osteoblastoma of capitate bone...

Data from healthy children are needed to evaluate bone mineralisation during childhood. Whole body bone mineral content (BMC) and bone area were examined by dual energy x ray absorptiometry (Hologic 1000/W) in healthy girls (n = 201) and boys (n = 142) aged 5-19 years. Centile curves for bone area for age, BMC for age, bone area for height, and BMC for bone area were constructed using the LMS m...

Objective: Otosclerosis has long been a clinical, audiological and tympanometric diagnosis. The definitive role and value of imaging is yet unclear in the clinical practice. In this work we aimed to study the temporal bone density using CT scan in patients clinically diagnosed as otosclerosis, not only to ascertain the value of CT scan, but also to study the correlation between the bone density...
